Springfield Organization Helps In Southeast Asia Relief Effort

The Springfield-based charitable organization Convoy of Hope is sending help to the thousands affected by the tidal wave that devastated parts of Southeast Asia and killed tens of thousands in parts of Thailand, India, Sri Lanka, Indonesia and as far east as Africa. Convoy of Hope officials are sending hygiene kits for immediate relief and are looking for cash donations for longer term relief. They estimate that relief efforts will continue for months and maybe even years.
